Episode Description
Do you need some encouragement as you head into this busy Christmas season? How do we navigate it well as Christian classical musicians? In today’s episode, we talk about how to worship the Lord by embracing all the extra musical opportunities this time of year brings. We’ll explore how to use our influence and our gifts for His glory, and reflect on the sweet truth that Jesus is God with us—His presence is near no matter how many directions we’re pulled. My hope is that you leave encouraged and equipped to step into every Christmas gig this month with purpose, joy, and a heart of worship.
If you haven't heard, the Instruments of Worship Podcast is now offering two brand-new music tote bags!! These bags are practical, beautiful, and designed to be a daily reminder of worship. Check them out at this link and hear more about the heart behind them in episode 33 here!
